Do you <groom>, take <wife> to be your wife? ("I do")

hallowed by the faith of Israel? ("I do")

Do you <wife>, take <groom> to be your husband? ("I do")
Do you promise to love, cherish and protect him, whether in

<groom>, as you place this ring upon the finger of <wife>,
speak to her these vows:
"With this ring be thou consecrated unto me as my wife,
according to the law of God, and the faith of Israel."

<wife>, as you place this ring upon the finger of <groom>,
speak to him these vows:
"With this ring be thou consecrated unto me as my husband,
according to the law of God, and the faith of Israel."

I, <bride/groom>, take you, <bride/groom>, to be my wedded <husband/wife>;
and I promise and covenant, before God and these witnesses, to be
your loving and faithful <husband/wife>, in plenty and in want,
in joy and in sorrow, in sickness and in health,

Just as it is made of incorruptible substance,
my commitment to you will never fail. With this ring, I thee wed.

Before our friends and those so special to us here,
on this wonderful day of gladness and good fortune,
I <bride/groom> take you <bride/groom> as my <husband/wife>,
in friendship and in love, in strength and weakness,
to share the good times and misfortune, in achievement and failure,
to celebrate life with you forevermore.

I have enjoyed the time we've spent talking about what
our different faiths mean to us. We have discovered much
that we share in common. It is my prayer that the candles
we have lit together today in unity will enlighten our path
to the future. I promise to honor your traditions as I honor you.

In the future, happy occasions will come as surely as the morning.
Difficult times will come as surely as the night.
When things go joyously, meditate according to the Buddhist tradition.
When things go badly, meditate.
Meditation in the manner of the Compassionate Buddha will guide your life.
To say the words 'love and compassion' is easy.
But to accept that love and compassion are built
upon patience and perseverance is not easy.
